2008 BLOG

Dec 2008 Leonie and I have been assisting the local post office with sorting the mail
into the 750 Post office boxes as they are a little snowed under during the lead up to Christmas.

Nov 2008 The curtain tracks in our house were giving problems,
so I replaced them with motorised tracks from Decorama P/L in Tamworth NSW.

Oct 2008 Our daughter Leonie and her son Ash have come to stay with us for a while,
They are recovering from a difficult domestic situation.

Sep 2008 We had a very windy day on Monday the 15th
and a neighbor's house was extensively damaged by a Falling tree

Aug 2008 The tax man was very generous this year so we bought a 127cm Plasma HDTV
and an up-converting DVD player for Jo to watch in the master bedroom.

July 2008 it's tax time again and this time I have actually done 3 months of work
which will have to be declared. I wonder what sort of refund I'll get this year.

June 2008 We are at home resting from our trip and doing the necessary maintenance
that comes from extensive travelling, at the same time preparing for the next trip.

May 2008 Jo and I went on another trip. this time from home to Cairns and back
via the coast of Victoria NSW and Queensland. We travelled 7600 kilometers in approx 4 weeks

Apr 2008 Most of Melbourne had a storm of 130-170 km/hr winds,
the hills area including cockatoo had many trees fall over roads and power lines downed.
we ourselves were without power for approx 32 hours.

Mar 2008 I received a call from Telstra about possible future contract work.
I said yes but will wait for details before signing any contracts.
